Add BollywoodShaadis on GoogleMargaret Qualley seems to have sparked a conversation around her shoe choice recently. For the London premiere of her forthcoming film, The Dog Stars, the gorgeous actress donned an all-black look. However, it was her choice of shoes that grabbed the attention. Netizens have been speaking about Chanel's recent collection for a while now, as they feel the pair barely qualifies as a shoe, given that it lacks an insole, outsole, or even a toe box.
It was back in April 2026 when the creative director of Chanel, Matthieu Blazy, presented 'Barefoot Heel Cap' at the Chanel cruise 2027 show. The cap-toe shoe was first introduced by Gabrielle Chanel in 1957. Back then, the shoes had a slingback with a contrasting vamp, and over the years the idea has evolved. The recent piece is known as the Barefoot Heel Cap. The moment it was presented, it sparked gossip; people mainly started creating a meme fest around it.
Margaret Qualley opts for Chanel's Barefoot Heel Cap for The Dog Stars premiere
Margaret Qualley chose to dip her toes in controversial waters, as she recently picked the Barefoot Heel Cap to accentuate her all-black look at The Dog Stars premiere. Additionally, Margaret posed with Jacob Elordi at The Dog Stars' premiere. The movie is directed by Ridley Scott and, apart from Margaret and Jacob Elordi, it also features Josh Brolin. It is scheduled for release in theaters and IMAX on August 28, 2026.
As she attended the event, Margaret's fashion sense has recently been questioned; however, she also got support from her followers. Speaking of Margaret's fashion choice of the day, she slipped into a gorgeous black dress with a deep V-neckline and all-over fringes. Soft makeup with red lips, open hair, stud earrings, and a ring complemented her black dress. However, what grabbed attention were her shoes for the day. Almost barefoot, Margaret Qualley definitely sparked a conversation with her shoe choice. Notably, the shoes' design includes heel elements that were secured with dainty ribbons.
One user wrote, 'I'm bummed out, Chanel (especially couture) do better.' Another user commented, 'Ugh, sensory nightmare!! She was probably stepping on rocks the whole time,' and a user penned, 'She is wearing an eyepatch on her foot'. A certain section of netizens, however, remained in awe of her style and kind of liked Chanel's 'Barefoot Heel Cap'.
The price of Chanel's Barefoot Heel Cap
According to the designer, Matthieu Blazy, the Barefoot Heel Cap was intended to evoke a down-to-earth feeling of a woman coming out of the beach or the sea. According to The Times, the shoes are intended to feel almost like jewelry. The price of the Barefoot Heel Cap was not publicly disclosed; however, a Financial Express report mentioned that the pairs might cost USD 1,000 to USD 4,000 (not verified). The shoes feature only the heel and are secured with a drawstring, and the alleged budget for the pairs also sparked a conversation.
